Panthers TE Greg Olsen on foot recovery: 'So far so good'

When you watch the Panthers these days it’s obvious they’re missing an important piece on offense. That probably has something to do with Greg Olsen breaking his foot back in Week 2 – the most challenging of what has been another injury-plagued season for Carolina.

Everything’s going well. . . We won’t really know a lot until you start really getting out there and moving around and running around and see how it responds,” he said. “So far so good.”

He can’t play a live game until Week 12 against the New York Jets, but Olsen is eligible to return to practice as soon as next week. That’s when Olsen is expected to test how his foot responds to football activities.

This current stretch of missed games is the first of Olsen’s career since his rookie season in 2007.
